Following a sold-out run at the Almeida Theatre, the critically acclaimed, award-winning Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen was captured live at the Trafalgar Studios during its limited West End run and now comes to your local screen.

Nominated for five Olivier Awards and garnering 5 star reviews across the board, GHOSTS has been described by critics as “A masterpiece. Richard Eyre’s new version has glories too many to list” (The Times), “Lesley Manville gives the performance of her life” (Sunday Telegraph), “A spell-binding production.” (The Independent) and “Superbly acted and powerfully staged” (The Sunday Times).

Helene Alving has spent her life suspended in an emotional void after the death of her cruel but outwardly charming husband. She is determined to escape the ghosts of her past by telling her son, Oswald, the truth about his father. But on his return from his life as a painter in France, Oswald reveals how he has already inherited the legacy of Alving’s dissolute life.

Lesley Manville (Winner – Best Actress Critics’ Circle Awards 2013) leads the cast in Richard Eyre‘s ‘stunning’ adaptation (Times) of Ibsen’s masterpiece.
